Brogi, Giacomo (1822-81; Italian)
Ricordi di Napoli
Album of 12 photographs
Acquired c.1880?
State Library of Victoria (H98.176/1-12)
[reproduction: Napoli: Veduta del Porto (H98.176/8)]
It is unclear whether this album was acquired in the pre-Felton era or not. It comprises a selection of conventional views of Naples and environs from Brogi’s catalogue, apparently dating from about 1880 (published by Casa Editrice, Florence & Naples).
For Brogi, see linked artist entry.
